Former Serbian deputy, Dragan Sormaz, believes that Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić is on the verge of resignation, accusing him of massive corruption.

Mass protests in Belgrade have continued for three months now, demanding the removal of President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, following the November 2nd incident in Novi Sad, where 15 people lost their lives after the roof of the train station collapsed.

According to former Serbian deputy Dragan Sormaz, these protests will only grow stronger.

He stated that Serbian Prime Minister Miloš Vučević should have resigned immediately after the tragedy occurred.

“The government has fallen because of these protests. For the first time, Vučić’s government has collapsed, and this is a sign. The government has fallen, the Prime Minister has resigned, and now a new government must be formed. These protests will not stop; they will only become more intense, but it is impossible to hold elections within 30 days. However, no one will accept elections in Serbia until the proposals made after the previous elections are implemented,” he declared.

The former deputy raised an alarm that in the coming months, Serbia will face an even more difficult situation.

“Vučić has created a corrupt clientelist system in recent years, particularly in the last five years, making it more perfected. What Vučević has led has not been a government, and neither will the next one be. I call it an expanded cabinet of the President of the Republic. He decides everything, calls people, tells them what to do. Essentially, for everything that happens in Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić is to blame. As long as this continues, Serbia will sink and be in a worse situation, economically, with its neighbors, and internationally,” he added.

When asked about Serbia’s influence in Kosovo through the Serbian List, he said this party is directly influenced by Belgrade.

However, he does not believe Serbia will financially support Serbs in Kosovo.

“How will he pay those 20,000 dinars for 5,000 Serbs? How will he do that? Will he pay them in euros? If he pays them in euros, he will enter Kosovo’s payment system. All of them have official bank accounts in licensed banks that operate in Kosovo. Then, this becomes a new problem for him because he will have to accept everything the government of Kosovo has done in the past,” Sormaz stated.

He also added that the protests in Belgrade are supported by Serbs in the north of Mitrovica, who recently held a minute of silence in solidarity with the protesters in Serbia.
